Subject: mm/debug_vm_pgtable: remove pte entry from the page table

Patch series "page table check fixes and cleanups", v4.

Two fixes:

  mm/debug_vm_pgtable: remove pte entry from the page table
	- remove a pte entry from the page table at the end of
	  debug_vm_pgtable pte test

  mm/khugepaged: unify collapse pmd clear, flush and free
  mm/page_table_check: check entries at pmd levels
	- check pmd level in page_table_check for PTE regular entries
	  prior to freeing.

Small cleanup:
  mm/page_table_check: use unsigned long for page counters and cleanup


This patch (of 4):

The pte entry that is used in pte_advanced_tests() is never removed from
the page table at the end of the test.

The issue is detected by page_table_check, to repro compile kernel with
the following configs:

CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE=y
CONFIG_PAGE_TABLE_CHECK=y
CONFIG_PAGE_TABLE_CHECK_ENFORCED=y

During the boot the following BUG is printed:

[    2.262821] debug_vm_pgtable: [debug_vm_pgtable         ]: Validating
               architecture page table helpers

               04/01/2014
...

The entry should be properly removed from the page table before the page
is released to the free list.
